You used lines very effectively this week. The DNA bridge pictures are very bright and could use being toned down a little. The fork picture interests me the most, but could be brightened. The asymmetrical picture that is last works really well, the fire hydrant doesn't really have directly symmetrical balance but as a picture does interest me.
In your 4th - 6th photo I felt like there wasn't a clear subject which came personally came off to me as uninteresting. The fact that there wasn't much contrast also contributes to this and I feel like raising the contrast could fix the problem.
You worked well with line and simplicity this week. Lack of contrast was your biggest problem in these photos. As previously stated, the DNA bridge is too bright. Also, I'd like to see a bigger variety in the times of day these photos were taken.
The light bulb photo is very successful. There is a clear focal point and good contrast. Some of your other photos are too bright which takes away from the overall image.
I really enjoyed the variety of subjects in your photos (by looking at your contact sheets). I think you are leaning towards a succesful/interesting composition with images 3-5 through repetition and symmetry, but in the future I'd try either fixing the iso/shutter speed to let in less light, or fix the contrast on photoshop. They are a little too light.
Your first two images are the ones that seem most impactful to me, mostly because of how sharp the contrast is between the darkest and brightest values (I think they're also the more interesting subjects, in how you chose to depict them).
Out of your DNA bridge selection, the first one (image 3) is by far the more engaging - the three after it are a bit repetitive and flat value-wise. I really enjoy image 7 though, for the various patterns and for the light/shadow effect.
You did a great job on finding lines and shooting them in an interesting way. And the light and white color make the photos of line very clean. As others mentioned, you need more contrast.
I think that this was your most successful week of photos yet. I love that you played with lines when shooting the DNA bridge, but I think those photos could have benefited from more contrast because they seem a bit bright to me. I really like how sharp the photo of the light is, and it would have been cool to see more photos taken at night. In addition, I think that you really kept in mind the balance of your photos. Maybe try to focus more on asymmetry as well. Maybe next week you can focus on texture!
Really good use of line to make composition! Like the others said, the bridge photos are just a bit too bright, but other than that, I think you had a very successful week.

ReplyDeleteI think your angles are great in every photo, but there is too much white!
